Cdl. Burke: Faithful Catholics a ‘Tremendous Leaven’ for Cultural Transformation "I find universally that there's a great deal of confusion," Burke observed, "also people feeling that the Church is not a secure point of reference." "Some are feeling even a certain bewilderment ... they are looking for a much stronger presentation of the Church's doctrine." Burke specifically referenced the widespread confusion among Catholics, flowing from Pope Francis' 2016 apostolic exhortation, Amoris Laetitia. "Certainly, as good Catholics, they love the pope with complete obedience to the office of Peter. At the same time, they don't accept these questionable interpretations ... interpretations, which in fact contradict what the Church has always taught and practiced," Burke opined. "There isn't clarity about these matters," the cardinal conceded, and as a result, Catholics "are in a very difficult state." In August, Burke dug even deeper into the issue, raising the specter of schism: People talk about a de facto schism. I am absolutely in opposition to any kind of formal schism — a schism can never be correct. People can, however, be living in a schismatic situation if the teaching of Christ has been abandoned. The more appropriate word would be the one Our Lady used in her message of Fatima — apostasy. There can be apostasy within the Church and this, in fact, is what is going on. www.churchmilitant.com/news/article/cdl.-burke-live-the-faith-with-fidelity-clarity-and-courage |

Cardinal Burke On His New Appointment to Church’s Highest Court Throughout the dispute over the issue, the cardinal has stressed he is acting on his conscience, for the good of the Church, the papacy and the individual souls of the faithful. “The urgency of a response to the dubia derives from the harm done to souls by the confusion and error, which result, as long as the fundamental questions raised are not answered in accord with the constant teaching and practice of the Church,” Cardinal Burke said in the interview. “The urgency weighs very heavily on my heart,” he said, adding he has seen “a great deal of confusion, also people feeling that the Church is not a secure point of reference.” The cardinal said his appointment will not change, or delay, his plans to issue a fraternal correction of the Pope if the Holy Father continues not to respond to the dubia. www.ncregister.com/blog/edward-pentin/cardinal-burke-explains-his-new-appointment-to-churchs-highest-court |
